Lining up for Once Upon a Time and Wishes

[littlejen22]

How early would you line up if you wanted to watch from the Gardens or end of Main Street before the Hub? It will be my kids birthday and I want to get ice cream for us and our friends and then hang out and watch the projection show and fireworks with a barrier in front of them so the kids can see well. Thanks

First, it needs to be said that nobody "lines up" to see Wishes or OUaT.

Many nights, the start of Wishes will precede OUaT by 45 min. (30 minutes between the end of Wishes and OUaT start.)

Wishes will be much easier to see than OUaT, as you need to be in or near the Hub to see the projection show.

Line up might not be the best wording but I want to stay somewhere to get a good view for both. The day I am going in a few weeks OUaT is only 15 minutes before Wishes. How early would you try to stake out a good location?

If you want a prime spot, I'd arrive about an hour before. The good spots will fill up quick..so I'd try to stay in the nearby area just in case you'd need to get there more than an hour ahead.
